...are used for an why, it builds a lasting comprehension that is easier to grasp. I prefer working through practice problems and believe that practice really does make perfect when it comes to Math. For high school students, I could also give advice for applying to colleges since I am a recent graduate. I live in Bergen County, but was born, raised, and went to school in Hudson County. I have a 1.5 year old...

...tutoring for Calculus, Linear Algebra, and Probability courses. I can provide tutoring services in a broad range of subjects, though I am most passionate about helping children and adults discover their passion and acumen for math and numbers. I promise it really isn't so hard! After all, mathematics is really more about ideas than about arithmetic. Ideas that inform our existence, that permeate our universe, that make up the world around us. I strongly believe...

...High School level Mathematics teacher. My love for math and goal career has led me to tutoring. I have experience in NY Regents and SAT prep along with tutoring all ages from college to middle school level tutoring. My philosophy for teaching/tutoring is about making the subject matter relatable; to not blindly memorize concepts but to understand the applications and truly learn how to tackle the most complicated problems. All the while keeping things light...

...toward their interests, which helps them learn more quickly, retain new skills better, and enjoy the tutoring sessions more. I particularly enjoy teaching science, writing, and test prep. With test prep I've found that supplemental work on fundamental skills helps students improve their scores much more than working through a test prep book alone. Watching students develop confidence in their abilities and improve their performance makes my tutoring sessions some of the best hours of...

I want to leave my mark on the world and be able to say I enhanced the lives of all those who are residing in, working in, or merely visiting the city. My background in mathematics is very extensive. I took all honors mathematic courses up through AP Calculus BC in high school and Calculus I in my first year...

...gives me a sense of satisfaction to see other people succeed. As the eldest of three I've helped my younger siblings in their studies and primarily use examples and analogies that they can understand and relate to in order to help them. Besides math and science, a few other things I love are research in my lab, football, basketball, comic books (especially Spider-Man and the rest of Marvel), and mixed martial arts.

...writing center tutoring fellow students in critical thinking, analysis, and academic writing. I also have a good deal of experience helping elementary and junior high students with math, reading, and French. Still, writing remains my favorite subject to tutor, largely because of the discussions that accompany it. Outside of the classroom, I'm a varsity cross-country and track runner; an enthusiastic fan of the New Yorker fiction podcast; and am fascinated by military history and policy.

After college, I went on to work for Prudential where I took Actuarial Exams for my career development. The Actuarial Exams are professional license exams that build on calculus, probability, statistics and advanced statistics topics. I find what I...

Its great fun to be able to teach what you love, and I look forward to working with new students on these subjects. I try my best to make every subject relatable to my students through everyday examples. I break down major concepts into more manageable pieces to help students...
